Recent studies have focused on the problem of resource allocation in systems in which multiple applications contend for multiple resources in order to satisfy their application level requirements. Multifunction radar system is an example of such a system in which multiple targets are tracked by the radar system simultaneously requiring processor and energy resources of the radar system. Lee et al. [I] studied the problem of maximizing the overall tracking quality of the multifunction radar system by applying optimization procedures offline. The optimization methods employed in this work first considered the sampling frequency alone as a resource and optimized this resource by using the approach of Seto et al. [6]. Later in the same study, sampling frequency and computation time are attempted to be optimized together by using the Q-RAM approach 12, 3, 4, 5]. However, the method presented failed to be extendable to accommodate additional resource variables. In the present study, two improvements over the solution approach of [11 are presented. Firstly, the optimization problem for a tracking radar system is extended so as to enable the consideration of the average power of the transmitted signal as a resource which can be optimized besides sampling frequency and computation time. By this extension, a novel optimization algorithm is proposed to optimize the average power together with the sampling frequency and computation time. Secondly, it is also shown that the extendible method presented can also be applied for the two variable case and produce comparatively more favorable results as compared with the Q-RAM based solution of [1].

A real-time optimal resource allocation approach in a radar system Irci, Ayhan; Saranlı, Afşar; Baykal, Buyurman (2006-04-19) Recent studies have focused on the problem of resource allocation in systems in which multiple applications contend for multiple resources in order to satisfy their application level requirements. Q-RAM [1] assumes a system with multiple concurrent applications, each of which can operate at different levels of quality based on the system resources available to it. The goal of the model is to be able to allocate resources to the various applications such that the overall system utility is maximized under the...
On optimal resource allocation in phased array radar systems Ircı, Ayhan; Saranlı, Afşar; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2006) In this thesis, the problem of optimal resource allocation in real-time systems is studied. A recently proposed resource allocation approach called Q-RAM (Quality of Service based Resource Allocation Model) is investigated in detail. The goal of the Q-RAM based approaches is to minimize the execution speed in real-time systems while meeting resource constraints and maximizing total utility. Phased array radar system is an example of a system in which multiple tasks contend for multiple resources in order to...
Development of high performance heuristic and meta-heuristic methods for resource optimization of large scale construction projects Abbasi Iranagh, Mahdi; Sönmez, Rifat; Department of Civil Engineering (2015) Despite the importance of resource optimization in construction scheduling, very little success has been achieved in solving the resource leveling problem (RLP) and resource constrained discrete time-cost trade-off problem (RCDTCTP), especially for large-scale projects. The major objective of this thesis is to design and develop new heuristic and meta-heuristic methods to achieve fast and high quality solutions for the large-scale RLP and RCDTCTP. Two different methods are presented in this thesis for the R...
Optimization of time-cost-resource trade-off problems in project scheduling using meta-heuristic algorithms Bettemir, Önder Halis; Sönmez, Rifat; Department of Civil Engineering (2009) In this thesis, meta-heuristic algorithms are developed to obtain optimum or near optimum solutions for the time-cost-resource trade-off and resource leveling problems in project scheduling. Time cost trade-off, resource leveling, single-mode resource constrained project scheduling, multi-mode resource constrained project scheduling and resource constrained time cost trade-off problems are analyzed. Genetic algorithm simulated annealing, quantum simulated annealing, memetic algorithm, variable neighborhood ...
Multi-Project Multi-Resource Leveling Using Mixed Integer Programming Altun, Murat; Sönmez, Rifat; Akçamete Güngör, Aslı (2018-11-16) In construction projects, resource leveling aims to provide efficient resource planning during project implementation by reducing possible fluctuations in resource usage. Decision makers mostly focus on the single project to optimize its resource usage by applying various objective functions of resource leveling problem. However, in real life, multiple projects may be performed in the same time period. Hence, leveling the resources of each project separately generates sub-optimal solutions since interaction...
